Jazzpaws Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 We know of a yes and a no so far xx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balletmumfor2 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I wonder if they are all out or whether they have just sent out the definite 'no' and 'yes' letters so they can see how many accept before sending out the next ones. Its not long to accept! Jazzpaws, did the letter come addressed to your dd & was it thicker than a normal envelope? My dd is away at present, so if there is a letter at home tonight when we get in, we will stil have no idea. Don't want to spoil her holidays if its a 'no'! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balletmumfor2 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Can sympathise with you Pastel as we have just got home after reading the forum all day and there is no envelope here! At least it means I don't have to debate whether to say anything to dd whilst she's away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macnatt Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Our postman has just been and nothing! I guess no news is good news at this stage but it does resign us to yet another day of waiting and wondering. Â Sorry to hear your news Mum in a Spin.

Balletmumfor2 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Hi macnatt. You are not alone as no news here today either although we have heard of 2 more 'yes' results via Facebook. I am seriously thinking they may be holding a second set of results until the first people have replied. We don't seem to have heard of any waiting list letters yet! Who knows? Fingers crossed for you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Autumn days Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Thank you for all your kind thoughts. My dd ws very upset yesterday as she knows that this was her last chance. She tried but the competition this year has been fierce so she understands that she is just not good enough. Â This morning though she has bounced back and is going to accept her place at the local 6th form college and see what new direction life takes. I am sure that dance will still be a part of it! Â Best of luck to everyone whether dancing or not! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiz Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Oh, bless her. I know a little bit of this as my drama daughter had gone through the mill this year in auditioning but the cut off for drama students isn't as young as it is for dancers. I was talking to my dance teacher about this last night and she says the competition for both is brutal. Much love to all dance and drama students. You are all lovely. x 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macnatt Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Mum in a spin, I am sure you are very proud of your dd resilience. Its great to hear she had something else up her sleeve in the event of disappointment. I wish her all the best and every happiness, the skills and disciplines learned through ballet whether as a career or a much loved hobby will stand them in good stead for whatever path life takes them down. I think not many of us are doing what thought we would be doing at 16... your dd for gave it her best shot, she wont have any regrets about not trying.

pastel Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Wow! - MIAS, best wishes to your dd. You're in a position none of us would like to be in. I feel for you. Hoping that she finds a new passion in life and is able to look back in years to come with fondness at her dancing years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balletqs Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 if your daughter is just 16 she mustn't give up hope my student is 18 and got the places at Central etc this year so it isn't too late.

swanprincess Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 So sorry to hear of your dd's sad news Mum in a spin and everyone else with the dreaded No letters, I know how heartbroken she must feel!! But perhaps she could audition again next year- going to vocational school at 17 or even 18 is still an option as I have learnt from the forum.... Or, she could always do A Levels then train to be a dance teacher- teaching is another way to pass on the gift of dance "Success is not final, failure is not fatal:it is the courage to continue that counts." Big hugs to her, and congrats to everyone who got in!! Xxxx 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
